tomb of Chaloner Chute at The Vyne

The tomb of Chaloner Chute, speaker of the House of Commons, is in a side-chapel adjacent to the main Tudor chapel of The Vyne, a 16th-century country house outside Sherborne St John, Basingstoke, Hampshire, England. Chute died in April 1659 although the tomb was created in the 18th century.

 

The Vyne was originally built in the 16th century for Lord Sandys, Henry VIII's Lord Chamberlain, but later passed to the Chute family.
